If it works anything like a modern dishwasher, it would use less water than a normal bath or shower.

But if it worked that way (using a small amount of water over and over to clean) would be gross and unsanitary in this case. One could filter it but that costs a lot of energy and changing a filter weekly on your shower pod would not be very green.

Have you ever taken a bath?

it's not unsanitary on your plates, why should it be on your skin?

Your plates can be washed with temperatures that would scald you and with chemicals that dissolve your skin.

But you don’t want to sanitise your skin, just get the dirt off, so I don’t see any real issues.

It looks like it completely fills and drains that big chamber at least a couple of times. If it were just a sprayer mechanism yeah that could be somewhat water-efficient.
